Pokemon: The Misadventures in Unova

Chapter 27

《Meloetta's wish》

A rough hour had passed, and the Professor explained what Elesa meant.

- "So... I work part-time, and you want me to work another part-time ? You.. do you know how weird that is ? And most importantly, how ironic it is." (Frost)

- "I know, I know.. 'I should have told you before hand' and all 'that. But you see, I needed a favor from Elesa here, and this is what I could offer—" (Prof. Juniper)

Frost just nodded in understanding. .

- "Why yes, so, out of everything you could offer. Did it have to be a part time Producer ?!" (Frost)

No, it was him just trying to hold it in.

{Meanwhile, on the spectator's side. .}

Meloetta was watching the two, awfully concerned by all the noise, especially by their facial features.. they don't look happy at all.

It was about to do something, like sing a happy tune but it's eyes caught another pair or eyes.

A tall figure, well, not so tall for humans, but enough for her.

From across a couch, it peeked, staring it's deep crimsom eyes towards Meloetta.

And then an awkward mood danced around them. .

Kirlia, being the curious bundle of joy, approached the Meloetta.

- "Hello ! My name is Kirlia, pleased to meet you !" (Kirlia)

{And on the girl's side..}

The pokemon center's door opened, and as usual trainers got inside, mainly to buy supplies... others to rest and two unusual trainers went straight towards the lady on the counter, whom everyone (kind of) recognizes !

- "Nurse joy. My pokemon are out." (Elesa)

Elesa, in disguise currently, asked for the usual, meanwhile the other girl just stood by her side, giving out just a polite awkward smile.

- "My, welcome trainer Liza and Gym Leader Roxie. I'll be happy to take care of your pokemon, please wait until they fully recover in a few minutes." (Nurse Joy)

And as if it was done quite a lot of times, the nurse nodded with a tender look while taking Elesa's pokeballand went towards the doors at the back of the counter, following her was her trusty assistant Chansey.

So, the two trainers now had to wait, sitting down near the reception. .

- "That boy. Just what is special about him ?" (Elesa)

Starting a conversation off, Elesa got curious about Frost...

- "That cute Kirlia was all head over heels to him.. and the boy just thinks nothing of it." (Elesa)

Or not, mainly about his Kirlia.

- "Haah.. this again ? Listen- He already knows the fact that Kirlia idolizes him. He knows how to train pokemon, he learnt it on Alola !" (Roxie)

Roxie, being almost fed up with Elesa's attitude of how she views him and Kirlia practically lowly yells that last bit..

At the same time, nearby people looked at her.. stared fir a few seconds and then went on their merry way.

- "Um... I'd like for you to keep it down a bit miss Roxie, and Liza, here are your pokemon. Now healthy and charged up !" (Nurse Joy)

And as if she appeared, the nurse warned Roxie and proceeded with giving back Elesa's pokemon... and by the way she adressed Elesa, means she probably either doesn't know her identity or the opposite.
